Mark 9:12
Compare all
10 So they kept this word to themselves, questioning awhat the rising from the dead meant.  
11 And they asked Him, saying, “Why do the scribes say athat Elijah must come first?”  
12 Then He answered and told them, “Indeed, Elijah is coming first and restores all things. And ahow is it written concerning the Son of Man, that He must suffer many things and bbe treated with contempt?  
13 But I say to you that aElijah has also come, and they did to him whatever they wished, as it is written of him.”  

A Boy Is Healed

14 aAnd when He came to the disciples, He saw a great multitude around them, and scribes disputing with them.  
15 Immediately, when they saw Him, all the people were greatly amazed, and running to Him, greeted Him.

Mark 9:12

Elijah verily coming first restoreth all things: and how it is written - That is, And he told them how it is written - As if he had said, Elijah's coming is not inconsistent with my suffering. He is come: yet I shall suffer. The first part of the verse answers their question concerning Elijah; the second refutes their error concerning the Messiah's continuing for ever.
